The Hanged Man

A man hangs upside down from a T cross of a living tree. This is a voluntary suspension that also includes fasting and austerities. There is a radiance about his head. The look on his face is one of contemplation rather than suffering. He has denied his physical body, offering it as a kind of sacrifice to attain spiritual knowledge.

The Hanged Man of the Tarot is about being suspended between the mundane and the spiritual. This card indicates a change in thinking, and a new clarity. Your hopes, desires, and goals, no longer seem as important as they once were while you re-think your values. There is a higher power guiding your affairs. Surrender to your Source.
